Abstract

The atmospheric remote monitoring systems are essentials to understand the dynamic phenomena that occur in our atmosphere. In December 2016 a Max-DOAS (Multi-axes DOAS) instrument - called Pandora - that allows to quantify the ozone total column concentration among other atmospheric parameters, was installed in the Laser and Applications Research Center (CEILAP), Institute of Scientific and Technical Research for Defense (CITEDEF-MINDEF), Villa Martelli, Buenos Aires province. The system is based on the DOAS (Differential Optical Absorption Spectroscopy) technique and provides information about the daily and seasonal evolution of the gas under study. Measurements carry out by this instrument and inter-comparisons with data retrieved by a Dobson spectrophotometer of the National Meteorological Service (SMN) - located in Villa Ortúzar, CABA - and satellite data are presented.
